AWS Certified CloudOps Engineer Associate SOA-C03 Practice Question
An application assumes an IAM role in your AWS account to upload objects to an Amazon S3 bucket. After your company enabled AWS Organizations and attached new service control policies (SCPs), the uploads now fail with an AccessDenied error. You must determine-without making any changes in production-whether the denial originates from the role's identity-based policy, the bucket policy, the role's permissions boundary, or the SCP. Which AWS tool lets you simulate the s3:PutObject call and pin-point the specific policy that blocks the request?
The IAM policy simulator can model a request made by any IAM principal against a chosen resource and action. During a simulation you can include and evaluate identity-based policies, resource-based policies such as bucket policies, permissions boundaries, and AWS Organizations SCPs. The simulator produces a detailed evaluation log that identifies exactly which policy statement allowed or denied the action. IAM Access Analyzer focuses on external access, while CloudTrail and AWS Config record or evaluate events after they occur and do not perform pre-change simulations.
